I loved this bike while I rode it, but had to finally admit it was too big for me: the bb to top of seat tube 53 - 54cm and top tube is 56 - 57.
I am not selling it complete as I don't have time to rebuild it, and spares are always useful, however I do still have most of the bits so if you would like to make an offer and rebuild it yourself I'm all ears!
I have a set of pitlock security skewers which the seatpost thread is cut too short to fit my current bike on, but they are perfect for this one - if you would like to add £30 to the price of the bike I'll throw them in as well and get a whole new set for myself.
So, as it is, you would be getting the following:
frameset, which was resprayed when I got it, but ceramic paint, so hasn't lasted well - could do with some love...go powder coat if you want it to last! has brazed on attachments for both rear and front pannier rack
wheels: mavic A119 32 hole with tiagra hubs - I think I did around 11,000 miles on it over 2/3 years but never had a computer so give or take.
tyres (28 x 700c) , front continental touring plus, never taken off, never punctured! Rear is a kenda.
bb is new - shimano UN55 sqare taper
cranks 165mm triple
stronglight chain rings 28/38/48t (38t needs replacing, as will the chain)
8 speed cassette (13/28t)
tektro R538 brake caliper on the rear
quill stem
dura ace front mech
deore xt rear mech
The bike is registered on bikeregister.com so I will also transfer ownership over to whoever buys it on there.
